Trouble connecting w/ mosaic designer for Mac (v1.11.5)

I have a museum project that is reinstalling, but keeping the same programming, but I'm having trouble connecting Mosaic Designer to the controller via Ethernet. IP and Subnet are all good, and I can connect to the web interface via Ethernet, but I can't connect w/ designer via Ethernet to highlight fixtures for focus  I can connect via USB, but then I'm across the building in an it closet.  

I'm running Mosaic Designer 1.11.5 on MacBook Pro w/ El Capitan.

  • There was some issue with El Cap and multicasting in Mosaic. You could try this...

    Close Designer and find your active ethernet port assignment by going to the Apple Menu / About This Mac. Then click System Report and find Network in the list. Note the BSD Device Name for the port you are using to connect to Mosaic (i.e., I'm en4 for my Thunderbolt Ethernet and en0 for WiFi).

    Open Terminal and paste in the following, changing out "en0" for whatever you found from above.

    sudo route -nv add -net 230.0.0.0 -interface en4

    You will then need to repeat the above command with the IP addresses below, replacing out "230.0.0.0"
    230.0.3.1
    230.0.3.3
    230.0.3.4

    This worked for a cohort of mine who was having the same problem you were.
